Thomas Dolby - Europa & The Pirate Twins lyrics
Your rating:
I was fourteen She was twelce Father travelled - hers as well - Europa... Down the beaches Hand in hand Twelfth of never on the sand Then war took her away We swore a vow that day: We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa Oh my country I'll stand beside you in the rain, Europa Ta republique... Nine years after who'd I see On the cover of a magazine? Europa... Buy her singles and see all her films Paste her pictures on my windowsill But that's noy quite the same - it isn't, is it? Europa my old friend... Blew in from the hoveport She was back in London I pushed past the papermen Calling her name She smiled for the cameras As a bodyguard grabbed me Then her eyes were gone for ever As they drove her away. - Dolby Thomas
